quicksilver blood

Chapter 402
Kajika was in a very complicated mood at this time.

This is the first time he has killed innocent people outside of his mission, and it is also the first time he has caused a massacre.

Before doing it, Akajika made a lot of plans in her heart: what to do if you encounter a strong person who can't be solved quickly, what to do if these people kill you together, what if someone finds out her purpose and gets rid of him What to do with the bandages on your body.But when he actually did it, he realized that these preparations were meaningless.

These Carals raised in the greenhouse are too fragile and cowardly.

About [-]% of them have never seen a dead person, and there are even fewer people who have come down from the front line.They didn't even dare to move when they were just frightened by the red Kaji flower.

After making so much preparation, she found that her opponent was completely useless... For a moment, Chi Kajihua felt powerless as if she had punched cotton.

In fact, thinking about it now, this is also a matter of course.

This is the edge of the disaster area, and it is the place where the slightly injured are placed for recovery.Unlike the central area where the ground collapsed and houses collapsed on a large scale, except for the injured, the rest of the people here are either nearby residents, or "rescuers" who dare not go or are too lazy to go to the center of the disaster area. ".

They are people transferred from the surrounding cities.But they were afraid that there would be devils in the center of the disaster area, or the possibility of another collapse, or they didn't want to use their physical strength to save people, so they nestled in this marginal area where there was basically nothing to do, chatting to pass the time.

If they are tired from standing, they will also shovel around with shovels, or walk around behind other workers like ghosts, showing the gesture of "I am working", and rubbing against the "disaster rescuers". " achievement.Even if none of them were rescued, they were still dangling around to block the way for those who were really saving people.

People with real courage and perseverance are now saving lives in the central area.Those who will be lazy and run to the periphery are basically not threatening and powerful characters.Faced with the threat of Akatsuki Flower, of course they wanted to resist, but they were immediately suppressed as soon as such thoughts came up.

Of course, this has something to do with the "character image" created by Chikajika.

Akakawa Hana doesn't want to lose all of her life here.Even if he dies, he must at least save some face for his parents and younger brother.What would they do if word got out that he had killed hundreds of people?If the family members of the victims were found, what would happen to their parents and younger brother?
Akakawa didn't dare to gamble.He didn't even dare to die in his own name, he could only use someone else's identity.

His role as the "mad veteran" wasn't something he invented out of thin air.This is a man he once killed who dealt with the devil.

That man was a lucky veteran who had participated in seven battles and was on the front line three times but was still physically intact.When he was discharged from the army, he finally received four medals and a hereditary knighthood and a large estate in recognition of his outstanding achievements.

The veteran wasn't satisfied with that.He thought he was insulted, he thought he could still fight—but the truth was, his hair was more than half gray, and his skin was covered in age spots and lost its elasticity.

He longed for the blood of the enemy, and was deeply nostalgic for the feeling of tearing the enemy's body with the Karal sword.In addition, his wife had died of illness, and his child had also died on the battlefield, and he had no attachment to the human world—so the soldier naturally fell into depravity.He made a pact with the devil, hoping to regain the vitality of youth and return to the battlefield he loved.

Like everyone else, he was lied to.

Veterans get only "vitality".Vigorous vitality surged in his body, and he couldn't sleep all night, but his bones were still slender and fragile, his skin was still losing its elasticity, his hair was dry, and it was very difficult for him to hold his sword.

So he went crazy.

In his madness, he seemed to have completed some forbidden ritual, and finally killed the projection of the devil with mysterious power, and successfully regained the ownership of his soul.But since then, that veteran's will has also been distorted, from a warrior who pursues honor to a cruel artist who pursues beauty.

At that time, Chi Kajika received the mission to kill the devil, but after arriving, he found that the devil was killed by the veteran, and the veteran had degenerated into a monster that was not inferior to the devil at all—there was a sea in the back of his head. Tentacles swaying like sunflowers, and his eyes have become snake eyes.

With the self-awareness of a demon hunter, Akakawa killed him in the wild and buried him.

With the self-consciousness of a junior, Chi Kajika did not tell the other villagers what a terrible monster this veteran was, nor did he reveal his identity as a devil believer, so that the veteran finally retained his reputation and was honored as a hero.

Akajika uses his image, speaks in his tone, and uses the weapons he left behind at that time.Therefore, if you use any identity-identifying prophecy on this disguised image, you will only get the veteran's information in the end.

According to ordinary people's thinking, few people would have thought that a person who could use Karal's military swordsmanship so smoothly would be a warrior from another country.Akajika has no doubt that her true identity will not be revealed.

But what troubled him was that after he realized this, he felt a strong sense of joy in his heart.

When using that veteran's identity, Chi Kajika seemed to be possessed by that veteran.For the first time, Akakaka felt some kind of pleasure when killing someone.

After confirming that her fake news had been left behind, Chi Kajihua didn't speak again, and just killed all the way in silence, aiming directly at the center of the disaster area...or, in other words, targeting the Marquis of Saya.

On the other side, Roland followed Kakarit to find Joseph.

When Roland saw Joseph again, the murderous intention in Roland's heart was already clear.

Although Joseph looked very low-key and silent, Roland clearly saw a flash of surprise in Joseph's eyes.

He shouldn't have feelings.

There is no doubt that Joseph's brain injury has been healed by someone.Roland clearly saw a sharp light flashing away in Joseph's eyes.

Roland narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked as if nothing had happened, "Joseph, where are our gold coins?"

"Your Highness, it's right under your feet."

Joseph's head was lowered, his eyes were fixed on the ground, and he said expressionlessly: "Inspired by my teacher, I hid the gold and silver coins in the cemetery here. There are in every coffin."

Roland nodded knowingly, showing a gentle smile: "You did a good job, Joseph. I bless you in the name of a mentor."

Joseph nodded silently, without any expression on his face.

"...Now, I want to give you a new task. And Kakarit, you come here too."

Roland's face became serious: "I have destroyed the city of wealth according to the order of my mentor. This is what you know."

Joseph and Kakarit nodded.

It was at that time that they started following Roland, of course they knew about it.

Roland took a deep breath and continued: "But, as you all know, there is one last existence in the City of Fortune that has not been wiped out."

"—The Tree of Suffering."

Kakarit immediately answered.

Roland nodded: "Exactly."

"The instructor's order is to 'lead all life to sleep, and let the evil city rise from the ashes'," Roland said with a deep sigh, "I hope to get your help."

"As you wish."

Without hesitation, Kakarit agreed.Although Joseph didn't express his opinion, because he "should not have opinions in theory", Roland didn't look at him, but continued: "From this point, I want to apologize to you, because this was originally my job. I repent of my sloth and all my other sins."

"You don't have to."

Kakarit replied righteously: "You are the representative of the mentor, the glory walking on the earth. It is an honor for us to share your worries."

"exactly."

Joseph had no choice but to answer in the same way.

Roland smiled gratifiedly.

He nodded in satisfaction, and said to the two of them: "Then, in order to ensure that the operation is safe, Joseph, you should first check the information on the Tree of Suffering. We will meet you at the West Gate of the City of Fortune in two days, and pay attention to your own safety." Safety, safety first."

"Yes."

"Kakarit, you go with me to the White Wolf Cemetery first. I'm going to get something there."

"As you wish."

Roland's expression gradually softened, and then he said something that surprised Kakarit and Joseph: "This matter means a lot to me. If this operation goes well, I will bring you rings, put on shoulder straps."

Roland showed a gentle smile to the two: "I think... I probably need a few cardinals to share the work with me."
